6306 Saddlewood Drive, Waxhaw, NC 28173

# 6306 Saddlewood Drive, Waxhaw, NC Set on 1.11 acres of private, wooded land in the quiet Saddlewood neighborhood of Waxhaw, 6306 Saddlewood Drive is a 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom contemporary ranch that offers something increasingly hard to find in this market: real acreage, real privacy, and real infrastructure, all within reach of one of the Charlotte region's most desirable small towns.

Built in 1980 and thoughtfully updated, the 1,188-square-foot home sits at the end of a long gravel driveway, tucked behind a canopy of mature hardwoods with stacked stone landscaping borders framing the approach. The land is as much the story here as the house.

The home's signature architectural feature is its dramatic shed roofline, where a bank of angled clerestory windows climbs the slope and fills the bedroom wing with natural light. It gives the house a distinctive, contemporary profile you simply will not find in a standard ranch.

Inside, the main living area is anchored by a wood-burning fireplace with a floor-to-ceiling natural fieldstone surround, raised stone hearth, and classic wooden mantel, the kind of feature that defines a room and earns its place in every season. Wide-plank luxury vinyl flooring in a light, weathered-oak finish runs throughout the home, warm and du

rable underfoot, while ceiling fans and abundant windows on three sides keep the space bright and comfortable year-round. The updated kitchen is clean and full of character. Butcher block countertops bring warmth, paired with a white tile backsplash, wood-tone cabinetry with modern bar pulls, a stainless pull-down faucet, and track lighting over the work zone.

A navy chalkboard accent wall adds a playful, personal touch, and the adjoining dining area with its own sliding glass door connects directly to the rear deck, making indoor-outdoor living effortless. Both bedrooms in the vaulted wing feel far larger than their footprint thanks to soaring ceilings and those high angled windows framing the tree canopy.

The primary bedroom features its own private sliding glass door to the deck plus a private bath with a granite-style vanity and a tiled walk-in shower. The outdoor space is where this home truly earns its distinction. A large rear deck, stained a warm natural tone and furnished with Adirondack seating, spans the back of the house with access from three sets of sliding doors.

Stone stepping paths wind from the deck into a wooded backyard that feels entirely private, where a rock-ringed firepit sits in a natural clearing among the trees. Outside is a finished flex building with luxury vinyl flooring, finished walls, lighting, a small deck, and French-door entry is a blank canvas: home gym, office, or guest overflow, whatever your lifestyle calls for.

A detached garage/workshop offers a concrete floor, automatic garage door opener, workbench, shelving, fluorescent lighting, and a window air unit, ready for projects of any size. A covered carport handles additional vehicle or equipment storage, and a dedicated firewood shed keeps the firepit and fireplace supplied.

It is all here, ready to use from day one. Zoned for Waxhaw Elementary, Parkwood Middle School, and Parkwood High School, the home sits within one of Union County's sought-after school districts. Downtown Waxhaw, with its walkable historic district, independent restaurants, and boutiques, is minutes away, and the greater Charlotte metro remains an easy commute.

Properties offering this combination of acreage, privacy, character, and outbuilding infrastructure at this size and price point rarely come available in Waxhaw. Privacy here is not a marketing phrase, it is the daily experience of the property. You get the retreat and the convenience, and very few properties deliver both.
